Mines Minister's Policy Staffer Who Advanced Kinross's Great Bear Mine Now Lobbies for Kinross

Government records obtained by the Toronto Star show Kevin Rombout, a senior policy staffer to then-Mines Minister George Pirie, actively advancing Kinross Gold's Great Bear mine file in 2024. He now works for Kinross and is listed on its lobbyist registration. Kinross and the province say he consulted the Integrity Commissioner and followed all ethics rules, but neither will release the full guidance. No finding of wrongdoing has been made.
